EEstor's claims have been subject to considerable debate. I've seen it suggested
that their materials science isn't as good as it might be ( dielectric
characterisrics of Hi-K ceramics ). I'll believe it when I see it.

However, conventional batteries are now up to 300Wh/kg ( about 5 times what
lead-acid can do ) which looks promising.

Check this out.
